On National Signing Day 2007, the Missouri Tigers pulled an unexpected coup when they got a signed letter of intent from Michigan linebacker George White. But when White was forced to go the prep school route, some wondered whether the Tigers would hold on to the pledge for another year.

"I call the Missouri coaches every once in a while just to check up on things," White told PowerMizzou.com. "Yes, sir, I am still committed to Missouri."

In fact, White said the flood of coaches trying to change that commitment has pretty much come to a halt. He also had some good news for Tiger fans--they may not have to wait all the way until February to find out White will officially be a Tiger.
